Institute for Training
Founded in 1986 (as the Centre for Psychoanalytic Research) the Australian Centre for Psychoanalysis (ACP) is devoted to the teaching of psychoanalysis, the training of analysts and research in the psychoanalytic field within the Lacanian orientation. The Centre offers a comprehensive program of training in psychoanalysis comprising the three components of psychoanalytic formation (personal analysis, clinical supervision and theoretical and clinical studies) which may lead to registration with the Centre as a Practising Analyst.
Anyone with an interest in the study of psychoanalysis may join the Centre's activities.

Program of Theoretical and Clinical Studies in Psychoanalysis 2012-2015
In 2012, the Australian Centre of Psychoanalysis will be offering the first year of its new program of theoretical and clinical studies in psychoanalysis.
Our program is aimed at engaging participants in a systematic study of the key concepts and questions crucial for the ethics, theory and clinical practice of psychoanalysis. It will provide those who desire to practice as analysts with an orientation and firm foundation to their formation as analysts. It will also be of interest to others interested in exploring and researching particular topics and questions in psychoanalysis.
The core program of on-going studies is structured to take place over a period of four years. It will consist of four Foundation Seminars:
- - FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS OF PSYCHOANALYSIS
- - Theory of the Unconscious and Repetition—from Freud to Lacan (PDF, 160kB)
- - The Drive and Sexuality in the Work of Freud and Lacan (PDF, 119kB)
- - PSYCHOPATHOLOGY
- - ETHICS AND PRAXIS
- - PSYCHOANALYSIS WITH CHILDREN
The ACP’s Program of Theoretical and Clinical Studies also includes the following Seminars on Formation:
- - SEMINAR ON FORMATION
